Wow, I kind of forgot about starting this blog! I have since planned the trip for my husband's 50th birthday surprise and am looking so forward to that. Life has been busy this year with a couple of trips (Disney World - a first for all 5 of us plus my step-mom, and an unplanned trip to London England where me and the kids flew to meet Greg for a week while he was out that way with work), kids activities (my son and his team won the Banner for the atom gold division they competed in, woot!!), and great times at our cabin in Ontario. We are nearly done finishing our projects at the cabin too. We only have a few small items (bathroom finishes and some trim in the bedrooms) left to complete. I can't wait until it's done! After that we can start thinking about building a bunkie for some extra space for guest/kids.
I created a couple of things for decor in our house that I am super happy with as well. I made a huge family sign (with old wood from a fallen ice shed at our cabin) and have used some driftwood to add some interest to a vase in the living room. Next I'd like to figure out what to do with another wall in that room, something a bit rustic and three-dimensional. I need to think on that for a while but have been collecting ideas on pinterest for a while now.
Thanks for reading, and we'll see how long it is until I take fingers to keyboard again! Happy Labour Day weekend to all :)
